Hi Guys, picked up my Garrett GT35R last week (Gregs old one - royston1xx). Has oil lines there ok....I think. But not coolant. Can anyone possibly inform me of what i need to purchase in order to connect coolant to the turbo and block. Here\'s a pic of the turbo if it\'s any help:

I think it\'s some sort of banjo joint on the bottom, and then some other type of connected on the other side (possible banjo too). Then how does it connect to the block, and what connects to the banjo bolt!
I like the idea of using the Goodridge style hoses and linkages, so will they work?
I have just been informed by someone (Davehg) who\'s running a single turbo, that he is running without any coolant lines - so is that the case with this?
There are definately 4 holes on this turbo - 2 are for oil, i know that. I assumed that the other 2 were for coolant.
This may help, http://www.rx7store.net/product_p/banjo%20fitting%20kit.htm .Looking at it they are standard parts most autofactors should have.

Those banjo bolts in the pic are for the coolant supply. The flange visible in the pic is your oil drain and the smaller hole on the opposite face to that will be your oil feed.
Nice one - cheers for that guys!
(Also welcome any other suggestions/help) :)
Also forgot to mention, you can usually get the oil feed and oil return lines/pipes on fleabay. Should be the standard Garrett flanges as found on Cossie or RS Turbo T3\'s etc. Just use the oil and water supplies for the original turbos. Also, I\'ve heard that water cooling is essential with ballbearing turbos.
Cool, cheers
